I buy gluten-free crackers (don’t go bad as quickly as bread…) and take it in a plastic ziplock sandwich baggie. My husband (or I, if he’s not there) takes the baggie to the priesthood right before the meeting starts. They break it from the outside of the baggie so that they don’t even have to touch it. I sit in the same place every week so they know where I am. Then they pass it around, I take the baggie off, my husband opens it, and I eat it with the other hand (no cross-contact).

My first week at church, my husband went into the young men opening exercises so that they (and their leaders) will know what’s going on with me. It’s gone very smoothly.

Comment on Gluten Free Mormon by Christina https://seekthesethings.wordpress.com/2009/03/12/gluten-free-mormon/#comment-80
Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:10:04 +0000http://seekthesethings.wordpress.com/?p=248#comment-80I am new to this whole GF life. I took my own bread to church last Sunday, and explained to the YM president about cross contamination. I recently found out that a few others in my ward are also GF so we decided to all sit by each other and take turns bringing the bread. It makes it so much nicer when your not the only one with “special” needs. I’m glad I found your blog, thanks for sharing.

Comment on This Post is for Frankie by Cheryl https://seekthesethings.wordpress.com/2009/05/24/this-post-is-for-frankie/#comment-62
Tue, 26 May 2009 18:01:36 +0000http://seekthesethings.wordpress.com/?p=305#comment-62I recently went gluten free and also began noticing increased sensitivities to other foods, primarily proteins. The jury is still out, but here’s my take on what has happened. When I was eating gluten I needed to be on meds for gastric reflux, but once i removed gluten, it was time to re-evaluate that med. I stopped taking the gastric reflux meds and my appetite is returning and protein isn’t bothering me anymore. My guess? The meds for gastric reflux were removing too much acid from my stomach so that I could not properly digest protein…i finally have energy again! Just thought this might help/contribute to the possibilities of what’s going on with Frankie.

I also have severe symptoms (although not as severe as the little girl you mentioned in your post)
For that reason, I started my blog to help others.
I would like very much to add a link to your blog – I think you have alot to offer my readers. (perhaps we can get more information and awareness out there)
I have been to your blog before (sorry I didn’t leave a comment) and I will be back.
Thank you
Aunt Jayne
